It's stupid, it costs too much for an active that has such a small hitbox and range. Ezreal with frozen gauntlet laughs all game while you attempt to use the item that would give you a window to close the gap only to see it miss and do absolutely nothing.

This item is such a gamble its a liability in your inventory.

The active is just way too weak. There isn't any reason to have it over a Talisman, its better to buy a Talisman even if you start with the frost item.

Lost count of how many times that thing secured my team a kill or peeled off a tank trying to rush my squishies.

I'm sure the same could be said about ANY champion with a dash/blink/leap in response to a slow.

The GP10 is practically worthless on a support unless rushed. But if you rush it, instead of boots, sight stone, or mana item, you become a worthless support.

all they have to do is make the stats on Frost Queen a little better.

i cry when i see supports build it in my game. Especially when they rush it(majority do). It delays so many other good items like Crucible which is waaaaaaaaay better. Stop rushing Frost Queens people

I don't even bother upgrading the thing anymore. I'd rather sit on the base version and never waste 500 to 1800 gold than upgrade it and spend 10-15 minutes trying to get back what I spent. There's way too little gain from upgrading Spellthief's.

They need to have it build out of item 3028 or item 3057 so AP poke supports can actually afford to poke. Looking at Sona Lux Zyra Karma Kayle Lux Lulu Nami

I feel the same way about coin. It adds no stats and the movement can be picked up from elsewhere. It's a mediocre item that's situational at best. Watching someone get coin is like watching them give up on the laning phase all together.

Spellthief is great for poke sups. It provides stats and gold on poke. Bang on the tower and you earn even more gold. The active on Queen isn't super strong, but it'll stop a moderate enemy rush pretty quickly. It's a perfectlly fine disengage tool.

Thief on Morg, Lulu, Nami, Sona works just fine when used correctly.
